Description Lilies have always been one of my favorite flowers. I've tried to escape the normal dead on flower shot and experiment more with lilies. These are the stamen which is the male part of the flower.

You didn't want to make a typical flower shot, and you've succeeded wonderfully.

I like the composition and the idea of this one. It doesn't search for the typical beauty of flowers.

This is really cool, Ive been taking images of plants like this but never considered this angle. Always hard to get everything in sharp focus shooting from the top of the flower. This works out great. Nice shot.

Great shot, I love how the shallow DOF makes the stamens pop out. What lens did you use?
